Mash-up heroes and villains don't always work out, such as the time DC combined Beast Boy and Hawkman.While the pairing may seem natural thanks to Beast Boy's affinity for animals, it was surprisingly unspectacular. It does more to limit the Teen Titan's abilities than it does to improve upon either hero's aesthetic or abilities.

He has reincarnated through many lives and has played roles on other planets as a space cop and even a New God, and has existed on Earth before as a Pharaoh in Egypt. Both of them are important members of their respective teams: the Teen Titans and the Justice League. They have specific skill-sets that are best employed in certain ways, but apparently don't necessarily line up with one another.
